As someone who smoked cigarettes and then quit by switching to vaping and weaning myself off, I can give anecdotal firsthand testimony that quitting vaping was much easier than quitting cigarettes. It's hard to say if some new vapers would have been smokers or not, and I agree that really none of it should be legal. But while any nicotine is legal, my personal experience gives me the opinion that vaping is a product which does indeed provide harm reduction.
- pnloyd 8y agoRight, and your personal experience would probably be the same as other _pre-existing_ smokers trying to quit, and it would be providing harm reduction if it worked for you. But doea the harm reduction to pre-existing smokers outweigh the increased uptake in youth populations?
- tigershark 8y agoI can provide anecdotal evidence that it’s no easier to stop vaping than to stop smoking. Should we make a poll on HN?
